I'm not too clued in with how federation works - but is this practical?
Doesn't federation require admins of both instances to agree to federate?
If so, I could imagine it not scaling for larger instances that could receive 100+ federation requests a day.
Further, you would have to repeat this step each time to encountered a new instance you wished to participate on.
Is my understanding of the federation process correct or have I totally missed the mark? :D
- kalleboo 3y agoThe federation is opt-out, so by default an instance will accept any federation request. You only block bad instances after the fact (or use some kind of shared blocklist)
